I don't know, but I think I've seen ROSEMARY'S BABY from beginning to end about ten times. I think it's so great.

Easy answer: Ghostbusters. I must have seen this a hundred times when I was growing up.

Other favorites are the Indy trilogy, the Alien trilogy, the Nightmare on Elm Street movies, Exorcist I & III and basically anything Stephen King.

When you own over 500 movies, you tend to rewatch many of them easily smile

Scoresalot, when you own over 500 movies, you never get to watch ANY of them more once!

At the movies I saw Raiders of the Lost Ark 9 times, by far the most times I ever saw a movie in a theater. I was really starving for escapest fare that particulary bad summer for me (divorce time) and this certainly fit the bill.

At home it would be harder since they all run together after a while. I would guess Alien the most. I'm sure it would be closely followed by Office Space, The Creature from the Black Lagoon, Forbidden Planet, Jaws, Star Wars, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Both versions of The Thing, Citizen Kane, Yojimbo etc...

This is intricately related to a previous thread regarding childhood movies or such a topic, as this was the best time to watch things over and over again, since a ny non-homework time was true free time.

Here goes, in no specific order...

I have no idea, but I'm sure the Star Wars movies (OT) are probably at the top, followed by Raiders of the Lost Ark. I'd be interested in knowing just how many times I've watched them.

This is difficult, because I spent better than 2 years working in quality control at Technicolor's videotape production facility in metro Detroit. So figured I have seen good portions of every film we ever made while I was there...Fantasia, Little Mermaid, Roger Rabbit, Mary Poppins, and stuff from Fox, WB, etc.

I know i have seen the rathbone and Bruce Sherlock Holmes films many times over. Adventures of Robin Hood, The Sea HAwk, The Quiet Man, Animal House, The Paper Chase, Blues Brothers, All of the Trek Films, All of the Star Wars Films, the list is endless, and I'm only counting things I have seen more than 10 times.

This is a little difficult for me as I have comfort films (those films I always return to when I feel a bit down), and I have films that I can't get enough of.

Here are a few though.

Good, The Bad, & The Ugly
Moby Dick
Night Of The Hunter
Tiger Bay
The Big Sleep
Xanadu (yeah, yeah, I know)
Project A-Ko
The Heat Of The Night
Miller's Crossing
Silver Streak

And my number 1 most watched movie of all time... The Muppet Movie. I viewed it more than 30 times in the theater alone as a child. My parents practically bought stock.

Many of Olivier's and Gary's contributions ring true with mine.

Also:













EDIT: And HOW could I forget these two! (Bad Holly!!)

Trickey question.

But I would guess mine is Berry Gordy's THE LAST DRAGON.

I watched it so many times in my youth that I broke the VHS-tape by playing it to much.



Who's the Master?
Sho-Nuff!!!



How to descibe it:
Blaxplotation / Bruce Lee / Mtv / and a twist of Star Wars
and you get THE LAST DRAGON.

One word: Classic 80's.

Hell it was even Golden Globe nominated, but then again it was also Razzie nominated.

The Star Wars (OT) and Indiana Jones films are up there, as are Die Hard, The Secret Of NIMH, Kill Bill, Pulp Fiction, and a few others.

Probably the original Star Wars trilogy. And if I never see them again, it'll be too soon.

In recent years, it's been:

EL DORADO (1967)
Tony Rome/Lady in Cement
Thirteen Days

The ALIEN films, esp. the first two, followed by the STAR WARSes (the old ones) and JURASSIC PARK. Also, due to the fact that they constituted the analysis chapters in my master thesis, I got a close relationship to E.T., BLADE RUNNER and EDWARD SCISSORHANDS.
